as for mixing up the name osama and obama, geraldo even made that mistake last night, it happens.
How was Geraldo chosen to break this news? One of the 'less able' correspondents to cover Iraq. whatever--whatever

Sometimes I fantasize about replacing every member of the media--I don't like what they think I should want to know. All we need is Oprah./gavel

Freudian slip? Well it's as close to reality as anything else they report

Geraldo was doing his weekly show, which I refuse to watch, but when I turned to Fox after seeing the word from ibginnie right here on CD that the President was about to deliver something of import I turned from a movie to Fox and there the idiot was. He kind of got that one by default.

I can't stand Wolf Blitzer either so I just watched Geraldo for that whole hour or speculation. My son (30) was watching with me and he commented that maybe Obama had died since he was so late after the promised 10:30 hour. Of course, he was kidding but couldn't keep from some real hoping.

OBL is OLD NEWS. He was no longer a threat. OBL was hiding out with NO PHONE, NO COMPUTER, NO NOTHING. He was a figurhead sending "love notes" to supporters.

We didn't know, didn't Obama say a bunce of I I I and Me Me Me concerning this operation? I kind of thought he pulled the military back to go do the job himself from his talking, and that job is dangerous, so of course that kind of mistake could happen considering we have such and hands on President...NOT~!

"mistakenly" ?

I'd love to have seen the face of this anchor when his boss told him "you'll say Obama" before going on air. Even he probably couldn't believe, but there is NOTHING these people will not do.
